I finally got some feedback from the "Bit Movie 94" contest I entered in January. I received a little brochure written in Italian 🙁 but I guessed that it was to promote various lectures and demonstrations and events connected with the contest. Anyway, on the brochure was printed the most awesome rendering done with Imagine by Eva Cortese and Antonio De Lorenzo. Mr. De Lorenzo for as much as I tell was also giving classes in various aspects of Imagine. The rendering was of two seahorses, one as sort of a unicorn with horn and wings, a shell, coral and a very nice arty background. It looked like Essence textures on the wings but maybe Imagine 2.9 has the 'flagstone' tuxture. The sea horses were glass and there were many subtle and wonderful things going on with various layered textures. The image was a raytrace, BTW. Does anybody know about these artists ? They sure know what they are doing.

much belated congratulations on your "Fandancer" image making Amiga World's pages. It's remarkable how much you've progressed over the years; but then again, my only impression of your work was a very early rendering. (I prefer to spend my online time corresponding with you nice people, rather than downloading) Not having seen any of your images since then made the surprise even more powerful.

I've been in kind of a 'resting' stage with rendering. I guess I am waiting for Impulse to finish up 3.0 even though I've got 2.9. I need to spend hours really going through the software. I also have Essence and I'd prefer not to patch it to use it. Also I'm waiting to get my revised Humanoids when 3.0 is done. My harddrive still has 2.0 on it and it sure does get confusing. Thanks for the complement. I felt pretty good about how it printed. That was a 2.5 meg full-strength Jpeg and the detail held together pretty well on that weird paper they use.
